Employment ends, non-b visa and work permit cancellation

[RandolphGB]

When employment with a Thai company ends, they will cancel the work permit with the labor department and the non-b work visa will come to an end. 

 

How many days before the cancellations takes effect? 

 

How long must the holder wait before they can change to a new visa?

I think the cancellation of work permit and Visa B extension is done the same day. Can't you have your new visa before cancellation (maybe make a deal with your supplier) ? Just asking ...

Also, you should have 7 days if no mistake to leave the country but if you have a new employment, you can try to see how immigration office can help you (maybe giving some extension), good luck.

The DoL does not tell immigration.  I got a job once, left after a month and kept my visa with no issue. Never cancelled WP. The only issue was I was fined when I got a new visa and new job/WP. 1500 baht from the Din Daeng police station. This was 20 years ago so may have changed. I believe only an immigration officer can cancel a visa.

You are of no further use to us. You have 7 days to leave.

Apply for 7 day extension same day... otherwise you gotta be out by midnight

So reasonable.

The very first thing to determine is if you have a visa or an extension.

If it is a Visa, you are allowed to stay until the expiration date.

Immi will not cancel.

A one year multi-entry visa that you got OUTSIDE Thailand?
